To keep them occupied, you should provide them with toys, wood, or blocks they can chew. When you keep these lesser sulfur-crested Cockatoos, you need to keep in mind that they love to chew objects, although they are not as destructive as other cockatoos. They make excellent pets because they are gentle, playful, and sometimes tend to be shy. Yellow-crested Cockatoos are active and high-energy breeds. These adorable birds are curious and love to engage in activities. Yellow-crested cockatoos inhabit the forest, forest edges, scrubs, and cultivated areas from sea level up to about 1500 meters. Like other animals found on Indo-Pacific islands, their major threats for survival include pet trade, habitat loss, unsustainable over-exploitation, and fragmentation. With very few yellow-crested cockatoos remaining in the wild, these birds are exposed to a lot of threats. There are only a few remnant populations of related subspecies scattered around Indonesia. Because of the deterioration, yellow-crested Cockatoos are classified as critically endangered. The population of this bird species has suffered a massive decline, estimated to be more than 80% in the past 40 years. Now the birds are confined to a few islands. These birds have also been introduced in Hong Kong and other parts of the world. The yellow-crested Cockatoo is native to the wooded and cultivated areas of East Timor and Indonesia’s islands of Sulawesi and the Lesser Sundas.
